Some possible roles for selenium in the reproductive physiology of the male graytailed vole (Microtus canicaudus)

Creator:: Whitfield, Stephen Curtiss
Abstract:: The testes of the gray-tailed vole (Microtus canicaudus Miller) exhibited a high affinity for selenium relative to other selected tissues. Uptake of selenium-75 in the testis-epididymis complex was delayed relative to uptake by the whole body, kidney, and liver. This pattern of uptake suggested that selenium was metabolically incorporated into...

Model Predictive Control for Underwater Robots in Ocean Waves

Creator:: Fernández, Daniel C.
Abstract:: Underwater robots beneath ocean waves can benefit from feedforward control to reduce position error. This thesis proposes a method using Model Predictive Control (MPC) to predict and counteract future disturbances from an ocean wave field. The MPC state estimator employs a Linear Wave Theory (LWT) solver to approximate the component...

Role of Extreme Events on Sedimentation in Loon Lake, Oregon Coast Range, USA

Creator:: Richardson, Kristin Noel Duckworth
Abstract:: Sediment cores were retrieved from a landslide-dammed lake, recording events back to the 5th century AD in a forested, mountainous catchment. These cores provide an opportunity to compare the impacts of known recent perturbations, including floods and timber harvesting with those of the early period of the core, flood, fire,...

Diffusion coefficients of isopropyl alcohol in binary and multicomponent gas systems involving air and argon

Creator:: Lee, Sung Chun
Abstract:: Diffusion coefficients for isopropyl alcohol-air, isopropyl alcohol-argon, isopropyl alcohol-mixture of argon 1 : air 1, isopropyl alcohol-mixture of argon 1 : air 2, and carbon tetrachloride-air system were determined, using an Arnold cell technique. The measured carbon tetrachloride-air system diffusion coefficient was compared with previously measured values to verify the...

Benthic macroinvertebrates and sediment characteristics of a coastal dune margin lake (Carter Lake, Douglas County, Oregon)

Creator:: Wones, Andrew G.
Abstract:: Carter Lake, a freshwater, coastal dune-margin lake, was sampled at the beginning and end of the summer of 1986 to determine the sediment characteristics and benthic macroinvertebrate abundance, biomass, variety, and diversity. The distributions of major benthic habitats were estimated by snorkeling in June and July, 1986. Water temperature and...

Heat and mass transfer rates associated with the drying of Southern pine and Douglas fir veneer in air and in steam at various temperatures and angles of impingement

Creator:: Laity, Walter William
Abstract:: Southern pine and Douglas fir veneer samples were dried in air under the following conditions: air temperatures were 350, 600, and 750°F; air velocities were 50, 100, and 150 feet per second, and angles of impingement of air against the veneer surfaces were 0°, 45°, and 90°. The resulting drying...

Survival of Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella spp., and Staphylococcus aureus in raw yellowfin tuna during refrigerated and frozen storage

Creator:: Mou, Jing
Abstract:: The consumption of seafood in the United States has increased rapidly in recent years due to high quality protein and health benefits of seafood. Seafood can be a carrier for bacteria normally distributed in the marine environment and, in some cases, can be contaminated by human pathogens. Therefore, there is...
